Removing

Input shaft removed. Refer to => [ Input Shaft ] Input Shaft.

(T40099) adapted for using with the 0AW transmission. Refer to => [ Pressure Stand, Adapting to 0AW Transmission ] 0AW Transmission.

- Pull oil pipe - arrow - upward and out to avoid damage.






- Check all eight bolts - arrows - on the (T40099).






Bolts must be installed flush to 25 Nm. Refer to assembly instructions for pressure stand (T40099)

- Insert input shaft in (T40099).






- Rotate (T40014) by hand into shaft seal until the tool has a good hold in the shaft seal. Then tighten puller with an open-end wrench.

- You can pull out shaft seal a short distance by screwing in rear bolt - arrow -.

- Re-tighten (T40014) so that puller engages securely in shaft seal again and continue turning bolt to pull out shaft seal.

- Repeat the process until the shaft seal is removed completely.

- Remove the locking ring from the input shaft cover - 1 -.






- Measure and note thickness of removed locking ring.

When installing, locking ring must be replaced with a new locking ring of same the thickness.

- Clean the contact surface on the input shaft cover.

Danger of getting burned.

Always wear gloves and eye protection!

- Cool the hallow shaft, for example with ice spray, through the opening - arrow 1 - for the removed oil pipe - 1 - on the inner bearing seat - arrow 2 - - 2 - (transmission input shaft ball bearing).






The input shaft represented in section here.

The input shaft must be cooled so that the input shaft ball bearing can be pressed off more easily and not be damaged.

- Clean the surface on the (T40099).






- Place the input shaft in the pressure stand.

The contact surface on the input shaft cover must be flush.

Make sure there are no shavings or dirt on the input shaft cover contact surface and on the surface of the (T40099).

- Also cool the input shaft from outside - arrow - with ice spray, for example.

The input shaft must be cooled so that input shaft ball bearing can be pressed off more easily and not be damaged.

- Place the input shaft together with the (T40099) on the hydraulic press pressure plate.

(T40099) should lie on as much surface of hydraulic press as possible.

- Hold the input shaft from underneath and push it at the same time out of the cover using the hydraulic press.






- Place input shaft on assembly tool (T10219/1).






Installing

- Replace the input shaft ball bearing. Refer to => [ Input Shaft Ball Bearing ] Input Shaft Ball Bearing.

- Place the input shaft cover on input shaft and press on by hand as far as possible.






- Place input shaft - B - on (VW 401).






Place input shaft straight and centered under hydraulic press thrust disc; otherwise input shaft can tip to the side when cover is pressed on.

- With hydraulic press, press input shaft cover - A - with (VW 416 B) onto input shaft up to stop.

- When installing, circlip - A - must be replaced with a new circlip of the same thickness.






The locking ring must fit inside the bottom of the groove.

- Check wear on transmission components. Refer to => [ Input Shaft, Checking for Wear ] Final Drive, Differential (0AW Continuously Variable Transmission).

- Replace O-ring on oil pipe - 2 -.






The oil pipe is pressed into the input shaft with the O-ring - 2 -.

Oil pipe must engage noticeably, rotor blades - arrow A - on oil pipe must lie completely in input shaft.

- Press oil pipe - arrow - down into input shaft to stop.






The distance from the end of the oil pipe up to the input shaft is approximately 11.5 mm - a - when the oil pipe is inserted all the way.

If the dimension is smaller, the oil pipe possibly is damaged as it was pushed in too far and is broken at the end.

If the dimension is larger, it is not pushed in far enough.

If the oil pipe is damaged, starting problems or a transmission malfunction will result.

The input shaft may not be placed on the protruding oil pipe - arrow -.
